Low-cost copper pills, spacers, optics, drop-ins (Updated 23/10/2022))

@kiriba-ru

I find these plastic boxes you use for shipping your orders very useful for storing bits and pieces of flashlight projects. Can you post a link to where you get them?

Cool, if they ship internationally maybe I’ll try to get over there via google translate XD, thanks

This is local $1-shop. I soppose you can find something similar in your country.

Ordered 4/25, they shipped the next day and arrived today. Wicked fast shipping from clear across the world.

Thanks for the good quality pieces kiriba!

Any C8 triple spacers left? I’m not sure if the dimensions have changed or not but looking to make a desert sand Convoy C8+ triple.

No.
I was not sure that there is any need in spacer since cheap triple sofirn host is available.
Also I dont think internal rivalry with C8TT is a good idea.

One hd2010 pill
One sk68 pill
are waiting for your offers.

PM sent for 2 P60 pills.

Really nice quality, i will buy more. Thank you :+1:

P60 quad shells will be restocked next week.

Have you considered making SS bezels for the Emisar D1S or D1?

No. Not possible.

Because of the threads?

No.
To make it cost-effective you need to have stocks of ss tube that fits pretty tight (I mean when it requires tiny amount of extra material removement to make a bezel), and a spare machine that works mostly with ss and equipped with special tools and coolant liquid.
If you just have an universal lathe and will try to make it from solid bar, you will get prime cost that can exceed d1 price.

That makes sense, thanks anyways! I’ll likely be ordering a copper triple pill from you when the orange S2+ is released.

Obviously this just means he needs to make a D1S bezel then bezels for multiple increasingly smaller lights with the inner bar material.

Surely machining is as simple as this right:

/s

I have no idea how any of this works

Haha that was worth a chuckle - there’s no easy way to turn out SS and salvage the inner core for anything usable. Even if you managed, there would be a lot of lost mat’l.

Kiriba, I saw some earlier comments in the thread about having problems shipping to Canada - are these resolved?

I dont have any problems - but international parcels have no tracking info after import.
